Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
1.
Nature and continuance of operations
Rouge Resources Ltd (the Company) was incorporated on March
31, 1988 under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada, and its
principal activity is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in
Canada. The Companys shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V)
under the symbol ROU and quoted on the OTC:BB in the United States.
The Companys registered and records office is located at Suite
203 - 409 Granville St., Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1T2.
These interim financial statements have been prepared on the
assumption that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable
future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the
ordinary course of business. As at October 31, 2015, the Company had not
advanced any of its properties to commercial production and is not able to
finance day-to-day activities through operations. The Companys continuation as
a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral
property exploration activities; its ability to attain profitable operations and
generate funds therefrom; and its ability to raise equity capital or borrowings
sufficient to meet current and future obligations. These factors indicate the
existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to finance
operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans
from directors and companies controlled by directors, and/or private placement
of common shares. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern,
the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts
on its Statements of Financial Position.

Significant accounting policies and basis of preparation
These interim financial statements were authorized for issue on
December 15, 2015 by the directors of the Company.
Statement of compliance and conversion to International
Financial Reporting Standards
These interim financial statements
comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and with interpretations of
the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).
Therefore, these financial statements also comply with International Accounting
Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. This interim financial
report does not include all of the information required of a full annual
financial report and is intended to provide users with an update in relation to
events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes
in financial position and performance of the Company since the end of the last
annual reporting period. It is therefore recommended that this financial report
be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements of the
Company for the year ended January 31, 2015 filed on SEDAR and EDGAR. However,
this interim financial report provides selected significant disclosures that are
required in the annual financial statements under IFRS.
Basis of preparation
These condensed interim
financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis; are based on
historical costs, modified where applicable; and are presented in Canadian
dollars unless otherwise noted.
Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires
the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The
Companys management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an
ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Revisions to estimates are adjusted prospectively in the period in which the
estimates are revised.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these
financial statements |

Rouge Resources Ltd. |
Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk of
material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods
include: the useful lives of equipment, the recoverability of the carrying value
of exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements for financial
instruments, recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets, and provisions for
restoration and environmental obligations and contingent liabilities.
Significant judgments
The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make
judgments, apart from those involving estimates and assumptions, in applying
accounting policies. The most significant judgments in preparing the Companys
financial statements include:
- |
assessment of the Companys ability to continue as a
going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may give
rise to significant uncertainty; and |
- |
classification / allocation of expenditures as
exploration and evaluation assets or operating expenses.
|
Foreign currency translation, transactions and balances
The functional currency of a Company is measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which it operates. These financial
statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is the Companys functional
and presentation currency.
Foreign currency transactions, where applicable, are translated
into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of
the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the
period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost
continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at
the date when fair values were determined.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary
items or on settlement of monetary items are recognized in the Statement of
Comprehensive Loss in the period in which they arise, except where deferred in
equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.
Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary
items are recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent that gains and
losses arising on those non-monetary items are also recognized in other
comprehensive income. Where the non-monetary gain or loss is recognized in
profit or loss, the exchange component is also recognized in profit or loss.
Exploration and evaluation expenditures
Costs
incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are
expensed as incurred.
Exploration and evaluation expenditures include the costs of
acquiring licenses and costs associated with exploration and evaluation
activity. Option payments are considered acquisition costs provided that the
Company has the intention of exercising the underlying option.
Property option agreements are exercisable entirely at the
option of the optionee. Therefore, option payments (or recoveries) are recorded
when payment is made (or received) and are not accrued. Exploration and
evaluation expenditures are capitalized. The Company capitalizes costs to
specific blocks of claims or areas of geological interest. Government tax
credits received are recorded as a reduction to the cumulative costs incurred
and capitalized on the related property.
Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment if
facts or circumstances indicate that impairment exists. Examples of such facts
and circumstances are as follows:
- |
the period for which the Company has the right to explore
in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the
near future, and is not expected to be renewed; |
|
|
- |
substantive expenditure on further exploration for and
evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted
nor planned; |
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these
financial statements |
7 |
Rouge Resources Ltd. |
Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
- |
exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in
the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable
quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue
such activities in the specific area; and |
|
|
- |
sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a
development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount
of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in
full from successful development or by sale. |
After technical feasibility and commercial viability of
extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable, the Company stops capitalizing
expenditures for the applicable block of claims or geological area of interest
and tests the asset for impairment. The capitalized balance, net of any
impairment recognized, is then reclassified to either tangible or intangible
mine development assets according to the nature of the asset.
Development expenditures
Costs arising from
the construction, installation or completion of infrastructure facilities are
capitalized within mine development assets until the mine achieves commercial
production at which point accumulated costs are transferred to producing mine
assets.
Share-based payments
The Company has a stock
option plan. Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of
the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based
payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services
received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined
the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are
recorded at the date the goods or services are received. Compensation expense is
recognized and the corresponding amount is recorded in the share option reserve.
The fair value of options is determined using the BlackScholes pricing model.
The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at
the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services
received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on
the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. When the options are
exercised, share capital is credited for the consideration received and the
related share option reserve is decreased.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share is
calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. For all
periods presented, the loss attributable to common shareholders equals the
reported loss attributable to owners of the Company. Diluted loss per share is
calculated by the treasury stock method. Under this method, the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for the calculation of diluted loss per
share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive share
options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at the average market
price during the period. Any stock options or share purchase warrants
outstanding cause the calculation of diluted loss per share to be anti-dilutive
and are therefore not included in the calculation.
Financial instruments
The Company
classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: fair value
through profit or loss (FVTPL), loans and receivables, held-to-maturity
investments, available-for-sale and financial liabilities. The classification
depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were acquired.
Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial
recognition.
Fair value through profit or loss investments are either
held-for-trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, derivatives not
held for hedging purposes, or held on fair value basis with a documented risk
management or investment strategy. when designated as such to avoid an
accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of
financial assets is managed by key management personnel. Such assets are
subsequently measured at fair value with unrealized changes in carrying value
being included in profit or loss.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with
fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are
subsequently measured at amortized cost. They are included in current assets
except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting
period. These are classified as non-current assets.

financial statements |

Rouge Resources Ltd. |
Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial
assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments with
Companys intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently
measured at amortized cost. Held-to-maturity investments are included in
non-current assets, except for those instruments that are expected to mature
within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative
financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or are not suitable
to be classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans
and receivables or held-to-maturity investments and are subsequently measured at
fair value. These are included in current assets to the extent they are expected
to be realized within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.
Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income, except
for impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary
financial assets which are recognized in profit or loss.
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial
guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortized cost.
Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized
on the trade-date, ie. the date on which the group commits to purchase the
asset.
Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive
cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the
Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is
objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of
available-for-sale financial instruments, a significant and prolonged decline in
the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has
arisen.
Transaction costs related to financial instruments include
professional, consulting, regulatory, agency commissions and other costs that
are incremental to the acquisition, issuance or disposition of financial assets,
liabilities or equity instruments. Transaction costs are initially charged to
the related financial instrument or equity instrument, except where the
financial instrument is classified as fair value through profit or loss , in
which case transaction costs are expensed to the Statement of Comprehensive Loss
immediately.
The Company does not have any derivative financial assets and
liabilities.
Impairment of assets
The carrying amount of
the Companys non-current assets, which include equipment and exploration and
evaluation assets, is reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there
is an indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable
amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the
impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of
Comprehensive Loss whenever the carrying amount of the asset, or its
cash-generating unit, exceeds its recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the greater of an assets fair value
less costs to sell and its value in use. In assessing value in use, the
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a
pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not
generate cash flows largely independent of those from other assets, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset
belongs.
A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of
assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash flows from
other assets or groups of assets. Impairment losses recognized in respect of
cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying
amount of the other assets in the unit on a pro-rata basis.

Rouge Resources Ltd. |
Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication
that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. However, any reversal of
impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the asset to an amount higher
than the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss
been recognized in previous years. An impairment loss with respect to goodwill
is never reversed.
Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to
amortization and are tested annually for impairment.
Cash
Cash on hand is with a major bank with a
high credit rating.
Income taxes
Current income
tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current
period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the
taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are
those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in the
countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income.
Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in
other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in other comprehensive income
or equity and not in profit or loss. Management periodically evaluates positions
taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where
appropriate.
Deferred income tax
Deferred income
tax is recognized using the asset and liability method on temporary differences
at the reporting date arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities
and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed
at the end of each reporting period and recognized only to the extent that it is
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part
of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the
tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or
the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities
are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets
against current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to
the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Flow-through shares
On the issuance of
flow-through shares, any premium received in excess of the closing market price
of the Companys common shares is initially recorded as a liability
(flow-through tax liability). Provided that the Company has renounced the
related expenditures, or that there is a reasonable expectation that it will do
so, the flow-through tax liability is reduced on a pro-rata basis as the
expenditures are incurred. If such expenditures are capitalized, a deferred tax
liability is recognized. To the extent that the Company has suitable
unrecognized deductible temporary differences, an offsetting recovery of
deferred income taxes would be recorded.
Restoration and environmental obligations
The
Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal
obligations associated with the retirement of long-term assets, when those
obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal
operation of the assets. The net present value of future restoration cost
estimates arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation
work is capitalized to the related asset along with a corresponding increase in
the restoration provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax
rate that reflects the time value of money are used to calculate the net present
value.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these
financial statements |
10 |
Rouge Resources Ltd. |
Notes to the Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
The Companys estimates of restoration costs could change as a
result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates and assumptions
regarding the amount and timing of the future expenditures. These changes are
recorded directly to exploration and evaluation assets with corresponding
entries to the related asset and the restoration provision. The Companys
estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount
rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates.
Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the
Companys estimates of restoration costs, are charged to the Statement of
Comprehensive Loss for the period. The net present value of restoration costs
arising from subsequent site damage that is incurred on an ongoing basis during
production are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Loss in the period
incurred. These changes are recorded directly to the related asset with a
corresponding entry to the provision. The increase in the restoration provision
due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense.
The net present value of restoration costs arising from
subsequent site damage that is incurred on an ongoing basis during production
are charged to the statement of comprehensive loss in the period incurred.
The costs of restoration projects that were included in the
provision are recorded against the provision as incurred. The costs to prevent
and control environmental impacts at specific properties are capitalized in
accordance with the Companys accounting policy for exploration and evaluation
assets.
At present, the Company has not identified any significant
restoration and environmental obligations in its operations. Accordingly, no
provision has been made.
Equipment
Equipment is stated at historical
cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Subsequent
costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognized as a separate
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can
be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part, if applicable,
is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement
of Comprehensive Loss during the financial period in which they are
incurred.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the
proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized in the Statement of
Comprehensive Loss.
Amortization is calculated on a declining balance method to
write-off the cost of the equipment to its residual value over its estimated
useful life at the rate of 30% per year.
Comparative figures
Certain
comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current periods
presentation.
3.
Accounting standards issued recently
New standard IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
This new standard is a partial replacement of IAS 39 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces new requirements
for the classification and measurement of financial assets, additional changes
relating to financial liabilities, a new general hedge accounting standard which
will align hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The new standard
also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple
impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted.
New standard IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
This new standard contains a single model that applies to
contracts with customers and two approaches to recognizing revenue: at a point
in time or over time. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of
transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. New
estimates and judgmental thresholds have been introduced, which may affect the
amount and/or timing of revenue recognized. IFRS 15 is effective for annual periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted.

For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
The Company has not early adopted these standards and is
currently assessing the impact that these standards will have on its financial
statements.
Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting
standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not
applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys
financial statements.

We now hold a 100% interest in 9 claims in the Thunder Bay
Mining District of North Central Ontario, known as the Dotted Lake Property
(The Property), including the 2 adjacent Lampson Lake claims acquired under a
4 year option agreement fully paid by April 20, 2014.
Primarily due to continuing uncertainty in the market
conditions of the junior mining exploration sector over the past few years, the
Company commenced a claims reduction and reconfiguration plan on The Property
during the year ended January 31, 2015 and proceeded to record an impairment
charge of $31,500 at this year-end date. This plan was designed to focus
entirely on claims of merit resulting in certain claims being allowed to lapse,
certain claims being partially re-staked, and certain land positions being
modified or increased all of which was substantially completed during the first
quarter ended April 30, 2015.
Plan implementation included payment of $4,400 during the year
ended January 31, 2015 and $7,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2015, both
for re-staking.
The 2 Lampson Lake claims are subject to a 2% net smelter
royalty (NSR) in favour of the optionors on one claim and with respect to the
other, a combination of a 2% NSR in favour of the optionors and a 1% NSR on any
metals and/or a 1% NSR payable to Ontario Exploration Company (OEC) on any
precious metals recovered from the property. The Company has the right
to buy back 1% of the NSR in favour of the optionors for $1,000,000 and to buy
back three-quarters of 1% of the royalty vested with OEC over 10 years on an

Share capital
Authorized share capital
Unlimited number of common
shares without par value.
Issued share capital
At October 31, 2015,
there were 44,633,171 issued and fully paid common shares outstanding (January
31, 2015 and October 31, 2014 44,633,171) and all remaining shares have been
released from escrow effective August 28, 2015. No shares were issued during the
nine months ended October 31, 2015.
Basic and diluted loss per share
The
calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for nine months ended October
31, 2015 was based on the net loss attributable to common shareholders of
$116,597 (October 31, 2014 - $111,046) and the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding of 44,633,171 (October 31, 2014 - 44,633,171). The diluted
loss per share will not include the effect of any share purchase warrants
outstanding in the future since the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Stock options
The Company has adopted an
incentive stock option plan which provides that the Board of Directors of the
Company may from time to time, in its discretion and in accordance with the
TSX-V requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and technical
consultants to the Company, non-transferable stock options to purchase common
shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance in any
twelve month period will not exceed 10% of the Companys issued and outstanding
common shares. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to 5 years
from the date of grant at a price not less than the closing price of the
Companys shares on the last trading day before the grant of such options less
any discount, if applicable, but in any event not less than $0.10 per share In
connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved for issuance
to any one optionee insider in any twelve month period will not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding common shares and the number of
common shares reserved for issuance to any one employee or consultant will not
exceed two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding common shares. Options may
be exercised no later than 90 days following cessation of the optionees
position with the Company or 30 days following cessation of an optionee
conducting investor relations activities.
At October 31, 2015, the Company had no issued or outstanding
stock options.
Share purchase warrants
At October 31, 2015,
there were no share purchase warrants outstanding.
10. Convertible
debt reserve
The convertible debt reserve records the equity component of
convertible debt with liability and equity components. On conversion, the amount
recorded is transferred to share capital.

A valuation allowance has been used to offset the net potential
benefit related to the future tax assets arising from these deductible temporary
differences due to the uncertainty associated with the ultimate realization of
both the non-capital losses and the resource pools before expiry.
These tax pools will be updated during year ended January 31,
2016.
12. Financial
instruments and financial risk management
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to financial
instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk
management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty
limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and
the way in which such exposure is managed is as follows:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one
party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause
the other party to incur a financial loss. The Companys primary exposure to
credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts and its credit and security
deposit. The Companys cash and credit card deposit are deposited in bank
accounts held with one major bank in Canada so there is a concentration of
credit risk. This risk is managed by using a major bank with a high credit
rating as determined by rating agencies. The Companys secondary exposure to
risk is on its GST receivable is minimal since it is refundable from the
Canadian Government.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk
that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall
due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine
the funds required to support the Companys normal operating requirements on an
on-going basis. The Company ensures there are sufficient funds to meet
short-term business requirements, taking into account its current cash position
and potential funding sources.
Historically, the Company's source of funding has been either
the issuance of equity securities for cash through private placements or loans
from Company directors and officers. The Companys access to financing is always uncertain and there can be no assurance of
continued access to significant funding from these sources.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited) |
For the nine
months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 |
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is
the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the
Companys functional currency. The Company only operates in Canada and is
therefore not exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from transactions
denominated in a foreign currency.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the
risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Companys exposure to
interest rate risk relates to its ability to earn interest income on cash
balances at variable rates. Changes in short term interest rates will not have a
significant effect on the fair value of the Companys cash account.

Description of business
The Company is a Vancouver-based junior mineral exploration
company engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring, evaluating and, if
warranted, developing mineral resource properties in Canada. No revenue has been
generated since inception and there is no assurance that a commercially viable
mineral deposit exists on our exploration and evaluation assets. Further
exploration is required before a final evaluation of the economic feasibility
can be determined. Significant financing and considerable time and effort will
be required before our mineral claims can be further explored and, if warranted,
developed into a commercial enterprise.
We now hold a 100% interest in 9 claims in the Thunder Bay
Mining District of North Central Ontario, known as the Dotted Lake Property
including the 2 Lampson Lake claims acquired under a 4 year option agreement
fully paid by April 20, 2014 and following completion of our claims reduction
and reconfiguration plan duringquarterendedApril30,2015.
We continue to monitor claims in North-Central Ontario and plan
to make additional acquisitions in this and other areas when and if the claims
are considered to be strategic or otherwise beneficial to the Company.

We now hold a 100% interest in 9 claims in the Thunder Bay
Mining District of North Central Ontario, known as the Dotted Lake Property
(The Property) including the 2 adjacent Lampson Lake claims acquired under a 4
year option agreement fully paid by April 20, 2014.
Primarily due to continuing uncertainty in the market
conditions of the junior mining exploration sector over the past few years, the
Company commenced a claims reduction and reconfiguration plan on The Property
during the year ended January 31, 2015 and proceeded to record an impairment
charge of $31,500 at this year-end date. This plan was designed to focus
entirely on claims of merit resulting in certain claims being allowed to lapse,
certain claims being partially re-staked, and certain land positions being
modified or increased and was completed during the first quarter ended April 30,
2015.
Plan implementation included payment of $4,400 during the year
ended January 31, 2015 and $7,000 during the quarter ended April 30, 2015, both
for re-staking.
The 2 Lampson Lake claims are subject to a 2% net smelter
royalty (NSR) in favour of the Optionors on one claim and with respect to the
other, a combination of a 2% NSR in favour of the Optionors and a 1% NSR on any
metals and/or a 1% Net Sales Return royalty payable to Ontario Exploration
Company (OEC) on any precious metals recovered from the property. The
Company has the right to buy back 1% of the NSR in favour of the Optioners for
$1,000,000 and to buy back three-quarters of 1% of the royalty vested with OEC
over 10 years on an increasing scale from $15,000 to $750,000.

Rouge Resources Ltd.
Management Discussion and
Analysis
Nine Months Ended October 31, 2015
Although our work on The Property in the past few years has
identified some gold mineralization hosted in sulphide rich shear bands in
granitoid rock, there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit
exists on our exploration and evaluation assets. Accordingly, we continue to
consider The Property to be an early stage exploration project requiring
additional exploration expendituresin order to gain better understanding of the
strike content and width of the gold mineralization uncovered during past
exploration programs. Significant additional financing and time & effort
will be required before further exploration can be conducted and, if warranted,
developedt into a commercial enterprise.
Our NI 43-101 Technical Report from late 2010 recommended a
Phase 1 budget for future exploration of $226,600 to continue with more soil
sampling, prospecting and trenching on the Property followed by a Phase 2 budget
including diamond drilling, if warranted, depending on results of Phase 1.
However, due to the challenging economic circumstances still persisting for the
Junior Mineral Exploration sector, implementation of this program has been
delayed until more favorable market conditions return.

Revenue
The Company is a Vancouver-based junior mineral exploration
company and has not generated any revenues since inception.
Nine months ended October 31, 2015
For nine months ended October 31, 2015, the Company reported a
net loss of $116,597 compared to $111,046 for the same period last year. This
$5,551 increase in loss resulted from the following:
- |
Minor $71 decrease in amortization of equipment.
|
- |
$1,350 decrease in business consulting fees. |
- |
$2,273 increase in interest expense due to the
significant increase in related party payables and the personal cost of
borrowings now required to fund these amounts. |
- |
$1,843 decrease in office administration and travel
expenses mainly due to lower cost of doing business. |
- |
$7,903 increase in professional fees (legal, audit and
accounting) primarily due to commencement of quarterly accruals this year
not done last year. |

Our net losses are fairly consistent from quarter to quarter
being comprised mainly of management services, professional services, office
administration and transfer agent & filing fees. However, due to year-end
audit adjustments, the 4th quarters ended January 31, 2015 and 2014
show higher losses than the average, which ranges between $34,000 and
$41,000.

ITEM 1.7 CAPITAL
RESOURCES
Share Capital
Authorized share capital
The Companys
authorized share capital consisted of an unlimited number of common shares
without par value.
Issued share capital
As at October 31, 2015,
there were 44,633,171 issued and fully paid common shares outstanding (January
31, 2015 and October 31, 2014 44,633,171) and all remaining shares have been
released from escrow effective August 28, 2015. No shares were issued during the
nine months ended October 31, 2015.
Basic and diluted loss per share
The
calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for nine months ended October
31, 2015 was based on the net loss attributable to common shareholders of
$116,597 (October 31, 2014 - $111,046) and the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding of 44,633,171 (January 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014 44,533,171). Diluted loss per share will not include
the effect of any share purchase warrants outstanding in the future since the
effect would be anti-dilutive.

Stock options
The Company has adopted an
incentive stock option plan which provides that the Board of Directors of the
Company may from time to time, in its discretion and in accordance with the
TSX-V requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and technical
consultants to the Company, non-transferable stock options to purchase common
shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance in any
twelve month period will not exceed 10% of the Companys issued and outstanding
common shares. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to 5 years
from the date of grant at a price not less than the closing price of the
Companys shares on the last trading day before the grant of such options less
any discount, if applicable, but in any event not less than $0.10 per share In
connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved for issuance
to any one optionee insider in any twelve month period will not exceed ten
percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding common shares and the number of
common shares reserved for issuance to any one employee or consultant will not
exceed two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding common shares. Options may
be exercised no later than 90 days following cessation of the optionees
position with the Company or 30 days following cessation of an optionee
conducting investor relations activities.
At October 31, 2015, the Company had no issued or outstanding
stock options.
Share purchase warrants
At October 31, 2015,
there were no share purchase warrants outstanding.
Capital Management
The Company's policy is to
maintain a sufficient capital base so as to maintain investor and creditor
confidence, safeguard the Companys ability to support its exploration and
evaluation assets and to sustain future development of the business. The capital
structure of the Company consists of share and working capital. There were no
changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the year and the
Company is not subject to any restrictions on its capital.
With no operating revenues to date, we continue to finance our
operations through the issuance of common shares and advances from related
parties. Although two private placements were completed in late August 2012
raising a net amount of $842,794 after share issue costs, there is no assurance
that additional financing will be available when needed in the future nor, if
available, on commercially reasonable terms. If we are unable to obtain
additional financing on a timely basis, either through issuance of more common
shares or obtaining additional advances from related parties, we may not be able
to meet our obligations as they come due which may impact our ability to
continue as a going concern in the future.
To a significant extent, our ability to continue raising
capital is affected by trends and uncertainties beyond our control. These
include general economic conditions, the market prices for precious metals and
results from our exploration programs. The Companys ability to reach its
business objectives may be significantly impaired if general economic conditions
continue to deteriorate, prices for metals such as zinc, gold, copper and
platinum fall or if results from planned exploration programs are unsuccessful.

ITEM 1.12 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING
ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
Basis of preparation
These interim financial
statements have been prepared on an accrual basis; are based on historical
costs, modified where applicable; and are presented in Canadian dollars unless
otherwise noted.
Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires
the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The
Companys management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an
ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the
estimates are revised.
Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk of
material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods
include: the useful lives of equipment, the recoverability of the carrying value
of exploration and evaluation assets, fair value measurements for financial
instruments, recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets, and
provisions for restoration and environmental obligations and contingent
liabilities.

Rouge Resources Ltd.
Management Discussion and
Analysis
Nine Months Ended October 31, 2015
Significant judgments
The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make
judgments, apart from those involving estimates and assumptions, in applying
accounting policies. The most significant judgments in preparing the Companys
financial statements include:
- |
Assessment of the Companys ability to continue as a
going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may give
rise to significant uncertainty; and |
- |
Classification / allocation of expenditures as
exploration and evaluation assets or operating expenses.
|
ITEM 1.13 CHANGES IN
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There were no changes in accounting policies during the current
year. However, new accounting standards issued recently are as follows:
New standard IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
This new standard is a partial replacement of IAS 39 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 introduces new requirements
for the classification and measurement of financial assets, additional changes
relating to financial liabilities, a new general hedge accounting standard which
will align hedge accounting more closely with risk management. The new standard
also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple
impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted.
New standard IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers
This new standard contains a single model that applies to
contracts with customers and two approaches to recognizing revenue: at a point
in time or over time. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of
transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. New
estimates and judgmental thresholds have been introduced, which may affect the
amount and/or timing of revenue recognized. IFRS 15 is effective for annual
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
The Company has not early adopted these revised standards and
is currently assessing the impact that these standards will have on its
financial statements.
Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting
standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not
applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys
financial statements.
ITEM 1.14. FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS, FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to financial
instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk
management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty
limits, and controlling & reporting structures. The type of risk exposure
and the way in which such exposure is managed by the Company is as follows:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one
party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause
the other party to incur a financial loss. The Companys primary exposure to
credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts and its credit card deposit.
The majority of cash is deposited in bank accounts held with one major bank in
Canada so there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using
a major bank that is a high credit quality financial institution as determined
by rating agencies. 10
Rouge Resources Ltd.
Management Discussion and
Analysis
Nine Months Ended October 31, 2015
The Companys secondary exposure to risk is on its harmonized
sales tax refundable which is minimal since it is recoverable from the Canadian
Government.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk
that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall
due. The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine
the funds required to support the Companys normal operating requirements on an
ongoing basis. The Company attempts to ensure there is sufficient access to
funds to meet on-going business requirements, taking into account its current
cash position and potential funding sources.
Historically, the Company's source of funding has been either
the issuance of equity securities for cash through private placements or
advances from directors and officers. The Companys access to financing is
always uncertain and there can be no assurance of continued access to
significant funding from these sources.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is
the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the
Companys functional currency. The Company only operates in Canada and is
therefore not exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from transactions
denominated in a foreign currency.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the
risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Companys exposure to
interest rate risk relates to its ability to earn interest income on cash
balances at variable rates. Changes in short term interest rates will not have a
significant effect on the fair value of the Companys cash account.
Commodity Price Risk
The Companys ability to
raise capital to fund exploration or development activities is subject to risks
associated with fluctuations in the market price of precious metals. The Company
closely monitors commodity prices to determine the most appropriate course of
action.

Analysis

Fair value
The fair value of the Companys financial assets and
liabilities approximate the carrying amounts included in the Statement of
Financial Position.
ITEM 1.15 OTHER MD&A
REQUIREMENTS
Managements Responsibility for Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the Companys financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and for such
internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation
of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
Conflicts of interest
The Companys directors
and officers may serve as directors or officers, or may be associated with,
other reporting companies, or have significant shareholdings in other public
companies. To the extent that such other companies may participate in business
or asset acquisitions, dispositions, or ventures in which the Company may
participate, the directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of
interest in negotiating and concluding on terms with respect to the transaction.
If a conflict of interest arises, the Company will follow the provisions of the
Business Corporations Act (BC) (Corporations Act) dealing with conflict of
interest. These provisions state that where a director has such a conflict, that
director must, at a meeting of the Companys directors, disclose his or her
interest and refrain from voting on the matter unless otherwise permitted by the
Corporations Act. In accordance with the laws of the Province of British
Columbia, the directors and officers of the Company are required to act
honestly, in good faith, and in the best interest of the Company.
Business and Regulatory Risks
We are engaged
in the mineral exploration business and manage related industry risk directly.
We are potentially at risk for environmental reclamation and fluctuations and
commodity-based market prices associated with resource property interests.
Management is of the opinion that the Company addresses environmental risk and
compliance in accordance with industry standards and specific project
environmental requirements. At present, the Company is not required to provide
for restoration and environmental obligations so no provision has been made.
However, there is no certainty that all environmental risks and contingencies
have been addressed.
Our exploration program will require significant future
expenditures and there is no assurance any commercial mineral quantities will be
found. If we are unable to generate significant revenues from our mineral
claims, continued losses are expected into the foreseeable future. There is no
history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood we will prove
successful, and there is no assurance that we will generate any revenues nor
ever achieve profitability. If unsuccessful in addressing these risks, the
business will fail and investors could lose all of their investment in the
company.
Regulatory risks include the possible delays in getting
regulatory approval to the transactions that senior management and the Board of
Directors believe to be in the Companys best interest, increased fees for
statutory filings, and the introduction of increasingly more complex reporting
requirements which must be complied with in order to maintain our public company
position.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements
This Management Discussion and Analysis may contain certain
forward-looking statements, as defined in the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and within the meaning of Canadian securities
legislation, relating to the proposed use of proceeds. Forward-looking
statements are statements that are not historical facts; they are generally, but
not always, identified by the words expects, plans, anticipates,
believes, intends, estimates, projects, aims, potential, goal,
objective, prospective, and similar expressions, or that events or
conditions will, would, may, can, could or should occur. Forward-looking
statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Companys
management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such
statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could
differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Factors that could
cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: a
change in the use of proceeds, the volatility of mineral prices, the possibility
that exploration efforts will not yield economically recoverable quantities of
minerals, accidents and other risks associated with mineral exploration and
development operations, the risk that the Company will encounter unanticipated
geological factors, the Companys need for and ability to obtain additional
financing, the possibility that the Company may not be able to secure permitting
and other governmental clearances necessary to carry out the Companys
exploration and development plans, and the other risk factors discussed in
greater detail in the Companys various filings on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) with
Canadian securities regulators and its filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission on EDGAR (www.sec.gov).
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation
to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking
statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
